Editorials
From the Publisher
"I appreciate the breadth of contexts sudied, from media, politics, work settings, religion courtrooms and classrooms. I believe they constitute a solid coverage that potentially make the book a classic, bridging a broad spectrum of evidence that will be very useful both to advanced undergraduate and to graduate students and to researchers...There is no other text that does similar work...very exciting and satisfying."- Victoria Bergvall, Michigan Technological University
